118 Chapter 118: The Price of Opening Sharingan.

"Although your cooperation is not bad, your individual strength is too weak. In the face of absolute strength, any strategy is just a trick, so strive to make yourself stronger.

Today's training ends here, I'll give you three days off, and after three days, start taking tasks again."

Originally a little lost, Tenma heard the last sentence, his face immediately became excited.

"Yes, Satoru-sensei."

Then, Hatake Satoru left a message, leaving only Tenma and the others.

"Itachi, are you okay?"

Shinko noticed that Itachi's face had been very ugly, and asked.

"I'm fine."

Itachi replied with a slight smile, but his expression looked very reluctant.

"Itachi, none of us blame you, so don't take it to heart."

Tenma stood up, patted Itachi on the shoulder and said.

"I know, but we've worked so hard, but it's still useless."

Itachi clenched his fist and said.

"No, who says it's useless, at least we have gained combat experience in this battle, and at least we touched the bell, next time, we will definitely be able to snatch the bell from Satoru-sensei."

"Yeah, Itachi, don't blame yourself."

Shinko also comforted.

"I'm fine, I'll go first."

After speaking, he left without waiting for the two to say goodbye.

Shinko was going to say something, but was directly held down by Tenma.

Tenma shook his head at Shinko.

"Let him calm down, this blow might have been a bit too big for him."

Both of them noticed that Itachi's figure was somewhat low.

Itachi now feels that he is too weak, disappointing Tenma and Shinko's expectations. They had put all their hopes on him, but in the end, he still let them down.

He returned home with a gloomy look, and everyone in the house noticed Itachi's abnormality. Even Sasuke, who was only two years old, walked to Itachi's side, swaying and not daring to speak.

"What's wrong, Itachi? You have such an expression on your face, it's not like you."

Uchiha Fugaku put down the book in his hand and asked. Itachi used to show a thoughtful expression, but he would never be as gloomy as he is now, frowning.

"Today, Satoru-sensei arranged a test for us, but we failed. I feel that the final reason for the failure was me. Tenma and Shinko have tried so hard, but in the end, I was still a bit short."

Itachi said with an unwilling expression on his face.

He has been thinking in his mind, if his speed is a little faster, a little faster, can he snatch that bell?

"Although I don't know what test he set for you, but if he doesn't want you to pass, it's normal for you not to pass his test."

Fugaku said flatly.

"You should know that Iwagakure Village was destroyed a while ago, right?"

"Yes, father, I have heard about this."

Uchiha Itachi nodded and said.

"And the person who did this is Hatake Satoru. This is no secret in the ninja world. His strength has become terrifying and fearful. He destroyed a ninja village with his own power. I don't know if such a person will appear again in the future, but before him, no one has done it."

Hearing Fugaku's words, Uchiha Itachi's eyes widened.

"Was that done by Satoru-sensei?"

Uchiha Itachi said in a very surprised tone.

"Yes, so his test for you, if he doesn't want you to pass, you absolutely can't pass. So you don't need to be discouraged, after all, he is too powerful, so powerful that people can't help but feel a little desperate."

When he said this, Uchiha Fugaku's face became much more serious.

Although he has now opened the Mangekyou Sharingan, he still doesn't think he will be Hatake Satoru's opponent. Because he can't destroy a large ninja village with his own power.

Hearing this, Itachi pondered for a while, but his self-blame in his heart still did not decrease.

"Father, I want to become stronger."

Itachi raised his head and looked at Fugaku with a firm gaze.

Hearing this, Fugaku was stunned. His son is already the strongest among his peers. If he develops slowly, he can definitely become a strong man standing at the top of the world.

But when he noticed Itachi's firm gaze, he knew that Itachi had made a big decision.

"Okay, then I will personally teach you to become stronger in the next few days."

A smile appeared on Itachi's face.

"Thank you, father."

"Itachi, you are the future of our clan, so you need to become stronger to prevent possible tragedies from happening."

Although Itachi still doesn't understand what tragedy Fugaku is talking about, he still nods seriously.

In the next few days, he has been training with Fugaku, but because Itachi's body has not fully developed yet, and his chakra is still very small, so some of the Uchiha clan's secret techniques Itachi can't use, and most of the Uchiha clan's secret techniques require Sharingan as an aid, but Fugaku still gave it to Itachi in advance.

"Itachi, you are really my son. Your talent is definitely the best I have ever seen. Even the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Madara, may not have such a strong talent as you."

Although Fugaku has long known that his son's talent is very good, after these days of personal teaching, it has made Fugaku understand Itachi's terrifying talent even more.

"Once your Sharingan opens, your strength will have a leap-forward development. By then, even if it is Jonin, I believe Itachi, you also have the strength to fight them."

He should have been a strict father, but now Fugaku is not stingy with his praise for Itachi, because Itachi really satisfies him, he can't find any shortcomings in his son.

"Father, how can I open Sharingan?"

Hearing Itachi ask so suddenly, Fugaku was a little stunned.

"If possible, I hope you never open Sharingan."

Fugaku sighed.

"Why?"

Itachi asked with a puzzled tone.

"You will know in the future, to get the power of Sharingan, you need to pay a certain price."

"Price? Is it serious?"

Itachi heard his father's tone a bit low.

"For some people, this price may be very large."

Speaking of this, Fugaku remembered the first time he opened his eyes, his best friend died in front of him.

At that time, he also went through a long period of time before he came out of that sentimental mood.

"So what was the price father paid at the beginning?"

Itachi continued to ask.

"The departure of a friend."
